sporadic no-start when warm

Our 2002 9-3 is having an issue with not starting after having been driven for a few miles. We took it to the dealer and they said they tested everything they could think of (ignition switch, alternator, battery) and can't find a problem. They suggested there was a parasitic drain on the battery. Wouldn't a drain on the battery cause the car to not start in the morning after sitting all night? It starts fine in the morning, but if we take it to run an errand, it sometimes won't start when we get back in the car. Turn the key, the dash lights all come on, but no cranking sounds. A jump has gotten it to start back up. And today, it happened again when I went to buy a jump-starter. I waited about twenty minutes and tried again and it started up on its own. Any ideas? Alternator and battery were replaced 6 months ago. 89k miles. Thanks
